High-velocity central air systems use a high-speed airflow through smaller than usual ducts to deliver conditioned air throughout your home. These systems are engineered for situations where standard central air ductwork isn’t practical like older homes, historic buildings, tight crawlspaces, or custom renovations.They give you the comfort and control of central air, with fewer visible components and less wall or ceiling alteration.
Efficient. Flexible. Whisper-quiet comfort.
When ductwork is limited, walls are thick, or you want modern comfort without major renovations — our high-velocity central air systems bring whole-home heating & cooling with minimal disruption.
How High-Velocity Works
A compact air handler resides in an attic, basement, closet or crawlspace
From it, small-diameter flexible ducts run through existing wall cavities, ceilings or floors rather than large trunk ducts
Conditioned air is delivered at higher speed into rooms, mixing with the ambient air to create even temperatures and reduce hot/cold spots
The system design minimizes the need for tuck-ins, bulkheads, or major remodel work often associated with traditional duct retrofits
Why Homeowners Choose High-Velocity
It fits easily in older or custom-designed homes where standard ductwork would be invasive or impossible
Minimal disruption: Because the ducts are small and flexible, we can install through existing walls/ceilings with far less mess than conventional systems
Consistent comfort: High-velocity systems provide uniform temperature control and fewer drafts because of the mixing effect of faster-moving air
Improved humidity control: Some systems remove more humidity than conventional air conditioning, improving comfort and air quality
Quiet and discreet: Equipment is compact and outlets can be styled to blend with your décor, making the system more visually subtle
